Abstract excerpt
Individual variability in cytochrome P450 (P450) induction comprises an important component contributing to the difficulties in assessing and predicting metabolism-based drug-drug interactions in humans. In this article, we outline the major factors responsible for the individual variability in P450 induction, including variable transporter activity and metabolism of inducers in vivo, genetic variations of P450...
